Islamabad: Former Pakistan president General (retd) Pervez Musharraf is likely to fly out of the country as part of a `secret deal`.
The move would be a repeat of events in 2001 when incumbent Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and his family were sent to Saudi Arabia under a deal.
The only difference between then and now is that Musharraf would be allowed safe passage on health grounds, under a deal that would be brokered by international players, sources said.
According to the Express Tribune, legal experts, however, said that Musharraf cannot leave the country without the court`s permission.
The court, in its order of April 8, 2013, directed the government to make sure Musharraf remained in the country until initiation of a criminal case against him for subverting the Constitution, the report added.
